That's great to hear! I'm glad you loved the idea of making the bathroom cleaner and fragrant and creating your own aromatic and insect repellent candle.

@@12Jayzel Hello! Yes, you can use any kind of candle for this DIY project. Whether it's a candle with color or an old candle, it will work perfectly fine. The color or age of the candle won't affect the outcome of the aromatic and insect repellent candle. So feel free to use whatever candles you have on hand. Happy crafting!
Yes, you can definitely add vanilla essence to your candle mix! It will not only enhance the aroma but also add a sweet, comforting scent to your homemade candle. Just a few drops should do the trick. Combine it with the coffee grounds and cloves for a delightful blend. Enjoy crafting your aromatic masterpiece!
Absolutely! Ground cloves can be used in the candle-making process. They will still provide a wonderful aroma, just make sure to mix them well into the melted wax. Enjoy your crafting!
Thanks for sharing your tip! Boiling cinnamon and cloves sounds like a fantastic idea, especially for enhancing the aroma. It's great to hear it works well in the Cambodian jungle! Have you tried combining that with the candle method? I'd love to hear how it turned out!
@@HomeDIYTips Thank you, I found it is best to use a kettle over a flame to keep the steam controlled. Another idea is to add lemongrass stalks. Enjoy!
@@stephenmajors5919 Thank you for the great tips! Using a kettle over a flame sounds like a smart way to manage the steam, and adding lemongrass stalks must give an extra refreshing scent! We appreciate your suggestions and love hearing how others enhance their creations. Enjoy your crafting too!
Great question! In the video, I used regular coffee powder, but infused coffee could definitely add an extra layer of scent and effectiveness. If you have any infused coffee on hand, feel free to use it! It might enhance the repellent’s aroma even more. Thanks for your interest!
@@Nanna_home You're welcome! I can't wait to hear how it goes. Enjoy the process of making your own candles, and feel free to share any tips or variations you come up with. Happy crafting!
Great question! If you don't have cloves on hand, there are a few alternative options you can try to create a similar aromatic and insect repellent candle. 1. Essential Oils: Instead of cloves, you can add a few drops of essential oils to the melted wax. Some popular options include lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, or citronella oil, which are known for their insect-repellent properties and pleasant scents. 2. Cinnamon: Another option is to use ground cinnamon instead of cloves. Cinnamon also has a lovely scent and can help repel insects. 3. Dried Herbs: If you have any dried herbs like rosemary, thyme, or mint, you can add them to the melted wax for a natural fragrance and potential insect-repellent properties. Remember, the exact amount of these alternatives may vary, so feel free to experiment and adjust according to your preference. Happy candle making!
Thanks for your feedback! I understand that the formula might seem unconventional. The combination of coffee grounds and paraffin wax was intended to create a unique scent and natural insect repellent effect. If you have a different formula or method that you prefer, I’d love to hear it! Always open to new ideas!

Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m sorry to hear it didn’t work out for you. Sometimes the mixing ratios or techniques can make a big difference.
